is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Gerardo
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. replacing a commercial oven comes first ($2,050) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Ask me anything else.
Thanks for sharing this, Gerardo. Hope you make a strong comeback. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care.
Best of luck, Gerardo. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Blessings.
Sending strength. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Oakland.
Hope you make a strong comeback. After 10 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care
